We enjoyed a little over three week stay at this lovely villa. We loved the access to the beach, golf courses and the lagoons. The villa was clean, well decorated and equipped with anything you would need to enjoy your vacation on Hilton Head. Ron & Eileen were so helpful in providing us with additional information regarding the multitude of activities available. They included email addresses, phone numbers, contacts, and emergency phone numbers. We would highly recommend this property for your next vacation.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, people with disabilities, age 55+, families with young children, girls getaway, tourists without a car, pet owners, sightseeing.

What a lovely view walking into Sea Whisper after driving 11 hours!! The villa is beautifully furnished, clean, bright, and comfortable. The owners are nice to deal with, very responsive, and definitely have the comfort of their guests in mind with lots of extras like beach chairs, boogie boards, golf and tennis equipment. The kitchen is well equipped and there’s a gas grill and outdoor seating. The California room was a favorite for naps, reading, and just admiring the outdoors. We’ve stayed in a lot of villas and this was by far the nicest. It feels more like a home than your typical condo/villa. Looking forward to returning (hopefully not in the too far future). We will definitely recommend Sea Whisper to anyone we know going to Hilton Head. Thanks to the owners for sharing your beautiful villa.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, families with teenagers, girls getaway, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

My son Jack and I vacationed on Hilton Head and stayed at The Sea Whisperer the last week of July and the first week of August. The trip was timed for the full moon in August. There is nothing more magical than a walk along the beach as the moon rises and the humid, salty breeze leaves its essence etched in your memory for a life-time. This was a familiar walk for me, now 65 years old. I have walked the wide exspanse of The Sea Pines Beach since my mid twenties. Each and every time my family and/or I came to Hilton Head, we stayed at The Sea Whisperer. Of course, back in the day...we didn't refer to 92 Fairway Lane as The Sea Whisperer. We called it The VIlla. Over the years, "The Sea Whisperer" has been sought out because of it's location, it's ambience and the fact that everything you didn't bring with you, is right there. The furnishings have been hand picked . Not only do they look impressive, but both sofas are seriously comfortable, as well. Each room has a southern-tropical flavor of it's own The translucent, golden veil of the "gloaming" can be experienced in the cheerful, sun room with 3 sides of glass walls that extend from ceiling to floor. The view from the sun room embraces tall Pines and Great Oaks adorned with Spanish Moss. And just beyond...........the lagoons. The lagoons out front and in the back of The Sea Whisperer are home to native herons and alligators!!!! Viewing them in the natural surroundings always leaves me in awe. The bird sanctuary is just a short walk from the front door. (The Rookery) There is always something to do on Hilton Head and the multitude of restaurants numbered 365 at last count. Take your pick. One for every day of the year!! I can remember when Hudsons was the only restaurant on the island!!! The pictures of The Sea Whisperer speak volumes but there is something else I would like to share with you. The walls of The Sea Whisperer ring with laughter and good times . The moment you walk through the front door, you "know" you have made the right choice. I, personally would not hesitate to recommend The Sea Whisperer to friends and associates. So. Now that your search for a place to stay on Hilton Head is over, I challenge you to give The Sea Whisperer your personal visit. .I know you will come back agaiin and again........and when you are gone too long, something in the very heart of you will be calling you back....to The Sea Whisperer. I promise. Respectfully, Margaret A. Boock, Esq.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, families with teenagers, girls getaway, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

This is a perfect getaway. My wife and I and another couple stayed here for a week with our two toddlers and had a great time. The villa itself was bigger than we expected and from what we could tell, one of the nicest at sea pines. All the furnishings were up to date and it was decorated nicely...two LARGE flat screen TVs. We timed the walk to the beach. It was just over 5 min but that is with 2 babies and everything that goes along with them...you could make it in 2min on a bike. Overall very pleased with our stay and would recommend it to anyone interested. Thanks Ron and Eileen for a great vacation!!!Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

The pictures don't lie. This destination was absolutely as advertised! Quiet setting, beautiful views of the golf course and a shaded short walk to the beach. We will be returning here as this location suits our needs perfectly. We've been to Hilton Head many times and this is by far one of our favorite spots!Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

The stay at the villa was nothing short than "PERFECT" It is elegantly laid out, centrally located to all the golf courses, excellent food eateries and bicycle trails. The villa was spotless, maintained to the best that I ever seen. You are within bike riding distance to all the shops at Harbour Town and South Beach. The ocean is only 3-5 minute walk. By bike, even faster. Just leave the vehicle parked at the villa and you are set for your stay. We recommend Marley's Grill, Salty Dog and Skull Creek (off the island) The pictures posted is "what it is". The owners are the greatest to deal with. They are extremely friendly and very courteous to work with. We will be back!!!! I night recommend this villa to any person, family or other wise. LIKE I SAID BEFORE "IT WAS PERFECT"Recommended for: People with disabilities, age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

Sea Whisper is a lovely, well appointed villa located less than 5 minutes walking distance from the beach. The owners have thought of everything needed to make our stay enjoyable and memorable. Located on the 4ht hole of the Ocean course, with a lagoon and a private putting green, our golfers were in heaven! There is much to do on the island and the surrounding area for the non-golfer and some very good restaurants in all price ranges and tastes. We particularly enjoyed taking the walking culinary tour in Coligny Square -we were able to taste some regional food and wine and also learn some history about the island. We plan to visit again next year and cannot think of a better place to stay than Sea Whisper!Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, families with teenagers, girls getaway, sightseeing.

Lovely Relaxing Family Vacation!

Just got back and already missing the beautiful relaxing place our family rented to spend first vacation on Hilton Head Island. The owners are just wonderful with prompt response and assistance. Thank you for that! It is greatly appreciated! I can go on and on describing the villa but you have to be there to believe. First when we walked in my husband and son asked "How much did you pay????" That's how much they were impressed by this place. You'll find everything and anything you may think of and need. Everything kept clean, nice and with the great taste. We loved the location, we loved the walks to the beach, loved watching the views from our windows. We truly felt like we were in our own home. If I ever back to Hilton Head that would be our place to rent for SURE!!! Besides the Villa - the beach is gorgeous; the water is so warm you don't want to get out. The nature is breathtaking and arounds are worth to take tours (Charleston, Savannah, Dufuskie Island, etc).Recommended for: Adventure seekers, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

The villa was absolutely wonderful and helped make our first trip to HHI one of the best vacations our family has ever had. The photos online are great but do not do it justice. I could go on and on about how lovely it was but the best compliment came from our friends who were staying nearby. Their family has been visiting HHI for 35 years and said that our villa is one of the nicest they have seen. The location put us just a short (but lovely) walk to the beach.The villa owners were great to work with and made the process very easy. Our family cannot wait to repeat the whole experience next year!Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

What a great vacation! During the week that we spent at the villa, we traveled around the Island and visited many beautiful and interesting places. Mornings devoted to exploration were followed by afternoons and evenings relaxing at this very comfortable villa. Its setting is gorgeous. We found the beds and furniture most comfortable, the decor attractive and the Carolina Room with its view over the water and the golf course most inviting. It was a nice to have three TV's for our entertainment. We frequented different restaurants and never had less than excellent meals. Our favorite occupation in the early evening was sitting on the patio and watching the many different birds. Thank you for providing us with a lovely vacation. We plan to return next year for another visit. George & Alice (New Englanders)Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, sightseeing.

What can we say about this incredible villa, only that if you are looking for the best villa in Sea Pines, you have found it. This will be our sixth year coming to Sea Pines and our second year at this phenomenal home. The villa has recently been renovated and is elegantly appointed throughout with beautiful furnishings and upgrades. For the chef, there is a well-appointed kitchen with grantie counter tops that opens up to the dining, entertainment area and Carolina room. You have an unobstructed view of the lagoons and Ocean Course and yet because of the configuration of the villas it is totally private. We love having our morning coffee in the Carolina room while watching golfers tee off on the Ocean Course 4th tee. You'll have your own private beach just a 2 minute walk away and it is just a short stroll to the Beach Club for refreshments or lunch. I love running and biking on the beach as well as quick access to the miles of bike trails right outside your front door. You are also an adventurous short bike ride or drive to Harbor Town, South Beach, Sea Pines Center, the Nature Preserve or the Stables. We are avid golfers and there is nothing like having your own "private green" to perfect your short game. The green is maintained by the Ocean Course and is absolutely magnificent. Another great feature of the villa is, location, location, location, we love the fast access onto the plantation via the Ocean Gate. Many of our friends either live or rent in Sea Pines and the first thing they say when they arrive is "Wow this is beautiful, how did you find it". I can't recommend this sublime space highly enough; you really have to experience it for yourself to see what a destination treasure it really is. We will be coming back for many years to come. It's fabulous!Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, romantic getaway.

Our family had an amazing vacation in Hilton Head, SC. We recently stayed at 92 Fairway Lane in the Sea Pines section of the island. The 2 bedroom villa was spacious and well decorated (like Pottery Barn) and was near everything we wanted to do. The living room and Carolina room overlooked a beautiful golf course. A putting green, just for Fairway Lane residents, was just outside the door. The beach was literally a 2 minute walk from the front door. Although we did not get a chance to use the villas bicycles, we saw people of all ages riding along the miles of well marked bike paths. We were just a short drive from Harbor Town and the island's many restaurants and shops. Staying at the villa was like staying at a very clean comfortable home. We look forward to staying there again in the future.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, romantic getaway, sightseeing.
